Heart in a Box by Kelly Thompson
4.0
I got this book as an ebook ARC from Edelweiss.
This was fantastic. The story is about a girl who has her heart wished away and after seeing how bad it is without feeling has to go on a journey to get the pieces back to make her whole.
First of all, the illustrations were beautiful. Absolutely stunning. The colors were perfect and everything just looked amazing. The frames weren't too busy and every thing flowed. Nothing was abrasive about the way it was setup.
The story was wonderful too. Through all her hardships, she realized that having a heart is so much better; that having emotion is what makes us alive. The ending was so perfect. It was so heartfelt and made me just so happy. Well composed and well written. This story had an easy time pulling on my heartstrings. The main character, Emma, was so easy to relate too...I know that many people have gone through hard times and felt like nothing mattered. This story just really spoke to me.
I'd gladly recommend this to other people. It was a perfect blend of illustration, story-telling and above all else, heart.
